OK, here we go...

Box 20... £20,000. That's one of them, but barely! If you can find one of the tiddly three now...

Box 6... £50! And you do, and it's the smallest of them! This is a box that deserves a spoiler tag...

Box 10...

£500! Amazing!

What a 5-box you have now, especially considering in regular play you'd have a 30% disaster scenario...

£22,505
£87,510
£250
£35,000
£150,000

Well, the offer's about 66% of the mean and chances are box 23 will produce a decent result... so...

DEAL £39,000 + 23

All three options were available, but David's decided to risk the 1/7 chance of nothing knowing that anything else will be a very nice sum of money! He's taking £39,000 to Box 23!

We now need to play out that proveout round...

Here's where we find out where we would've been at the 2-box decision point...

Box 12... £250! Oh, of all the times to find that one...

Box 14 we've already had, it's 3, 5, and 7 left on the wings...

Box 3 we'll open...

£87,510! That's that out of the way, and it makes it very easy. Find the £150k and you got out at the right time; don't, and you didn't.

And now, the reveal of what was in your box.... it was...

£150,000! An amazing game, and that was a big part of why. Box 7 had £35,000.

While there was even more to be won in this game, playing on to 5-box was certainly lucrative for you.

Well, almost certainly. You took the Box 23 option with a £39,000 stake, and this is your setup:

BOX 23 OPTIONS
0% - NOTHING
50% - £19,500
100% - £39,000
150% - £58,500
300% - £117,000
+£17,000 - £56,000
ADD CAR - £39,000 + Nissan Leaf

Pick a number, 1-7, to decide your fate...

I'm sure Mark is currently shouting "Should've been a LOT, LOT, LOT more brave" somewhere!

Option 1 please.
